Reflecting Giant

You are fortunate for your proximity to this amazing and remarkable construction. The predominate and most interesting structure on the St. Louis city skyline. Unique to the city or any other American city.
I enjoy your Arch gallery & all your photo interpretations of this symbol of the city. The grain effect in this foto and also in this - have the feeling of viewing from afar, through some haze, from a distance, which is usually the way it is casually observed. (even though you are close) I think your Arch fotos thoughtful and articulate.

6.52 Nice day
by Melethia

Comment:
Graphic black contrast of the top dark weight of the trunks - slicing into cement, like a broken comb - more detailed, bench & man walking the dog, brought up enough, but still subordinate to the light, all balanced w/the unseen tree canopy creating wonderfully lacy, shadows upon the sidewalk.
A interesting file to start with - I like this rendering.

Grounded, Flight
by Bruce_the_Robert

Comment:
Grounded, Flight - The title a interesting concept. Intentionally combining these two ideas in a picture, for me would be an after thought. A result of the experience and image.
Leading & waiting for the bird to fly into a scene, rather than use of the more conventional pan technique, can be a choice, but may be more often, intuitive at the time of the event.
This is an unusual and interesting image, beautiful expressive idea.

#3 Vase

Comment:
Vase. A frontal, formal still life, a classic style vase, control lighting w/conventional portrait style - cameo-vignette back and frame. Shows contrast, texture and a very interesting shimmer on the flora.

The midwest expression for something rather ordinary - stick in the mud - comes to mind, but this view & work is far from ordinary.

Drive-In Movies

Real interesting, an entry with a character of Googie-Populuxe style. A good view & capture. Drive-in-theaters, once so common, they have become rare on the landscape. Where would this one be located?

I think your EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro is relatively new. It is a nice lens, a very very good choice & fits within your canon system. I am little disappointed because I know you were researching & considering some other optical variations for this format. I am positive you will use the canon 100mm well, but for some inconsequential reason, I thought you might opt for something different.
My recommendation is to buy that LR trial your playing with. This is good.
